QMU Procurement Report - Section 5 – Future Regulated Procurements

Queen Margaret University is keen to encourage competition by promoting optimal participation in its procurement process and achieve better value for money in its procurements. One method of achieving this is to give notice to suppliers of tendering opportunities that are expected to commence over the next two financial years after the period covered by this report.

In preparing this forward projection of anticipated regulated procurements, it is difficult to be precise about providing details of actual requirements. Over a forecast period of two years it is very probable that circumstances and priorities will change so the list of projected individual regulated procurement exercises outlined in Appendix D should be viewed with this caveat in mind.

The information provided in Appendix D - list of Future Regulated Procurements covers:

the subject matter of the anticipated regulated procurement
whether it is a new, extended or re-let procurement
the expected contract notice publication date
expected award date
expected start and end date
the estimated value of the contract.
contract category: call off from framework, C – local contract or C1 – local collaboration
